Red Sea Holidays


africa
Red Sea holidays offer golden sandy beaches, clear turquoise waters, year-round sunshine and outstanding snorkelling and diving among vibrant coral reefs. Combine your holiday to the Red Sea with Egypt’s magnificent ancient sights or enjoy simply as a place to relax and unwind. Visitors can choose from an impressive range of resorts, from relaxed, family friendly hotels to luxurious properties offering exceptional service in opulent surroundings.

Hurghada and the nearby resorts of Sahl Hasheesh, Soma Bay and El Gouna can easily be combined with a visit to Luxor, making them ideal for travellers wishing to explore the remarkable temples and tombs of the Nile Valley before unwinding beside the crystal-clear waters of the Red Sea.

Sharm El Sheikh lies just a short flight from Cairo and provides the perfect place to relax after experiencing Egypt’s energetic capital, with a number of direct flights also operating from the UK.

Trailfinders offers a range of Red Sea holidays and our expert travel consultants are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand travel experience. Whether you want to combine your Red Sea beach break with a more in depth exploration of Egypt on a multi centre holiday or simply find the best luxury hotel for a relaxing winter sun holiday – they are the perfect people to ask.

Would highly recommend snorkelling straight from the shore on the Red Sea, the coral reefs were breathtaking and we saw so many different fish!

Work up an appetite with a pre-breakfast snorkel! In the morning, the Red Sea is at its calmest, visibility is at its clearest, and marine life is at its most active.
